Original & Mineral's story began in Atlantis Hair, a boutique salon in Sydney, Australia. Alan Buki suffered contact dermatitis; handling traditional hair colors full of harsh chemicals left him with cracked and bleeding hands. Together with wife Jose, they researched professional hair color formulated without harmful chemicals and started using ammonia free colors in their salon Atlantis Hair. Very quickly, the O&M brand grew from demand of other hairdressers who suffered the same skin condition as Alan, as well as the many clients suffering skin allergies or simply seeking out a more natural solution of hair color.

"We challenge the artificial norms of professional haircare with formulations that are both effective and gentle. We’ve removed harsh chemicals where possible and replaced them with native Australian ingredients, natural extracts and active minerals." O&M
